DESCRIPTION:

BRIEF SUMMARY
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to a method and arrangement for heat conditioning completely or partly of a locality, or region in a building where the construction of the building comprises elements of e.g. concrete having parallel channels through which heated of cooled air is passed between the ambient environment and the locality in either direction.


BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The object of the invention is to make use of the air which in the locality or region has been heated by people and/or mchines and also electric lights being placed in the locality, but which air when used up must be ventilated away. By the invention it is also possible to make use of the heat rising upwards to the ceiling of a locality and which heat otherwise will escape in the form of heat losses through the roof or must be ventilated away. A further advantage of the invention is to take care of the heat produced by the sun against the outside of the roof. According to the invention not only heated air is inserted into the locality but also fresh air and a continuous exchange of air is attained in the locality without draft or other inconveniences. It is known to heat exchange the fresh air with the used air by ordinary heat exchanger. According to the invention exchangers are used which have a greater mass (body) from which the accumulating effect can be used. The invention is thereby characterized by the concrete elements being adapted to work as regenerative heat exchangers so that the air (used air), before being passed to the ambient environment, is passed from the locality at the temperature there through the channels of the elements for transferring heat in the air to said elements, and during a following period of time the air is passed in the opposite direction from the ambient environment into the locality through said channels: these operations are alternated and regulated regularly during a complete twenty-four hour time period, whereby simultaneously the amount of air (air pressure) in the locality is balanced.


BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

An embodiment of the invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings wherein, FIG. 1 is a schematic sectional view through a framework of a building showing the regulating means of the invention according to one embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a schematic sectional perspective view through two opposite walls of a building showing the piping and the regulating means according to a second embodiment of the invention.


DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 illustrates a principal drawing and a section through the roof construction of a building including the regulating means. It should be understood that a locality is placed under the roof construction.
The roof construction over the locality includes a floor framework 3 of concrete having channels 2 known per se. The channels 2 are distributed along the section with suitable distance between each other. At suitable intervals branch channels 4 are provided leading upwards from the channels 2 to a narrow space 5 between an insulation 6 on the framework 3 and a covering layer 7. The roof construction thus includes the covering layer 7, the narrow space 5, the insulation 6 and the framework 3. The framework 3 is self-supporting and consists preferably of slabs having supporting beams or flanges (not shown).
Air exchanging to and from the narrow space 5 is performed via openings 8 at the eaves. Air can thus pass from the ambient environment through the openings 8, through the narrow space 5, down through the branch channels 4, through the channels 2 and further on to a piping as described hereinafter.
As can be seen from FIG. 1 the left part of the roof is identical with the right part. Channels 2 of the left part of the roof lead via a common collecting main 9 to a four-way valve 10. The channels 2 of the right part of the roof also lead via a second common collecting main 11 to said four-way valve 10. The second collecting main 11 is connected to the four-way valve 10 at a port 12,
